- NLE track growth is now a display concern: video/subtitle track lists render reversed (a new track lands on top), audio lists render in order (a new track lands at the bottom); the graph list always appends. Track-add undo removes THIS track by id instead of blindly removing the last one - add_track returns the actual index of the new track (diffed against the pre-command list) instead of assuming append-at-end - status bar proxy segment reflects the real Use Proxy Media switch instead of a static "Proxy: Off" - proxy transcode PROGRESS events no longer invalidate the rendered frame cache on every tick (only completion does) — progress updates used to keep the playback cache permanently cold while generating - effect library: live search box (name/type-id substring), Built-in group header, and the addable-effects table is sorted alphabetically (built-ins first, then OFX sub-category groups)

Roadmap
| Version | Theme | Core Deliverables | Boundary Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| 0.3 | Plugin Architecture Milestone | Production-ready OpenFX host support | Not about quantity of plugins, but "any OFX plugin loads without crashing" |
| 0.4 | Color, Audio & Performance | .cube/.3dl support, scopes (waveform/vectorscope/histogram), three-way color wheels, waveform auto-sync, BWF timecode sync, audio meters (LUFS/VU), proxy media workflow, hardware-accelerated export (NVENC/VideoToolbox), batch render queue |
Combines the previous 0.4-0.6 scope into one usability milestone: color workflow, audio sync, and 4K/8K performance |
| 0.5 | Animation, Tracking & Collaboration | Bézier keyframe curve editor, basic point tracking, image stabilizer, full multicam angle switching, OpenTimelineIO, EDL/XML import/export | Combines the previous 0.7-0.8 scope into one timeline/interchange milestone |
| 0.6 | Stability Milestone | Project file format freeze (backward compatibility promise), crash recovery, autosave, memory optimization | "Feature freeze" testing period before 1.0 |
| 1.0 | Production Ready | Complete documentation, installers, known issues list, community support channels | Declared "ready for serious projects" |
